The force between two point charges $q_1$ and $q_2$ placed in a vacuum at a distance $r \ cm$ apart is $F$. The force between them when placed in a medium having a dielectric constant $K=5$ at a distance $r/5 \ cm$ apart will be:

State Coulomb's law and explain its scalar form.

Three equal charges $+q$ are placed at the three vertices of an equilateral triangle centered at the origin. They are held in equilibrium by a restoring force of magnitude $F(r) = k r$ directed towards the origin,where $k$ is a constant. What is the distance of the three charges from the origin?

What is the force between two small charged spheres having charges of $2 \times 10^{-7} C$ and $3 \times 10^{-7} C$ placed $30 cm$ apart in air?

The force between two charges of $+3 \ \mu C$ and $+8 \ \mu C$ is $40 \ N$. If a charge of $-5 \ \mu C$ is added to both,what will be the new force in $N$?

$A$ charge of $1 \mu C$ is divided into two parts such that their charges are in the ratio of $2: 3$. These two charges are kept at a distance of $1 \ m$ apart in vacuum. Then,the electric force between them (in $N$) is
